Will Snap-on Dentures Fix My Jaw?
I was looking in the mirror and noticed I look a lot older. The problem seems to be my jaw as well as the area around my mouth.

Denture Problems
I need some help. As my grandchildren would say, “I’ve got some probs.” I’m a fairly new denture wearer. Every time I seem to get sort of a handle on one issue, another one pops up. I was struggling with them sliding and I’ve gotten some adhesive which helps a bit, bRead More

Husband Refuses to Wear Dentures
My husband lost his teeth about six months ago. We decided for him to get dentures. He absolutely hates them and refuses to wear them. He says they hurt and food gets under them.

Affordable Dental Care for Emergencies?
I’ve been laid off and with it lost my dental insurance. I’ve had decent teeth most of my life. Wouldn’t you know it the moment I lose my insurance I have a tooth become inflamed and painful. There’s even a small pimple on my gums, which I think may be part of the problem.Read More
